New Skincare Products

Hi lovelies, today I want to share some new skincare products with you that I have been trying lately. I'm a big skincare junkie and love to try new products and brands. You can read more about my skincare story and skincare routine in the "Beauty" category.

I like to refresh my skincare routine during the summer/end of summer. I think it is because for me, the end of summer/beginning of fall feels more like a New Year than the actual New Year in December. I always feel inspired this time of the year.

First, I wanted a new night cream. I have been using my night cream for a year now and now I'm kind of bored using that every night. It keeps my skin in good condition but I want to switch things up a bit. So I bought a moisturizer from Skin Treat. They are a natural and botanical brand and I want to use more natural products. So far I'm loving it! My skin feels so soft after applying it and the smell is amazing. The smell is very fresh, like lemon or something. Love it!

Then I also bought a new toner from Madara which also is a natural skincare brand. But that one smells horrible haha!! Like rotten flowers. Eeekk! 

SPF is something that I want in my daily moisturizer. I have very fair skin and easily get sunburned... Not funny at all haha. And even if I use a bb cream or foundation with SPF, and want SPF underneath it. I have combination oily skin and it's difficult to find a moisturizer with higher SPF and that is mattifying. But now I have finally found it from Dermalogica. 

Always before bed as the last step, I spray my face with a face mist. This one smells really nice, like lavender and it's calming. Emma S is also a swedish brand and it's always nice to support brand from my own country. 

I did eyelash extensions!

I'm so happy because I have done eyelash extensions! It's my first time trying it and I'm loving it. It's so nice to not have to apply mascara. Lately, I have been so sick of it. It takes time and one eye always looks better than the other one, and I think I have shorter lashes on one eye. I hate mascara. And when I remove mascara my eyes get so red and I start to cry, I think my eyes are quite sensitive. So it's so nice to not have to think of that now. I wake up and I'm basically done, so nice! And it's great that I did them now so they will still look good on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. In about three weeks I will have to have a top-up. I did single eyelashes since it looks more natural. I did my eyelashes here so if you live in Uppsala or nearby, I highly recommend her (and she also had the cutest dog ever)! ♡

Favorite Lipsticks

Mac lipstick in "810 fleshpot"

Hi lovelies! Today I want to share with you my favorite lipstick shades from Mac. I recently bought my ever first Mac lipstick, yes you heard it right, and I love it! I want more of them now haha! I wanted a nude/beige/pink ish lipstick and the sales associate recommended the color 810 fleshpot and it's the most perfect color ever. I have been looking at more lipsticks now and these below are the ones I like the most. 

Changing All My Skin Care + My Skin Care Story (starting at 10 years old)

My Skincare Story Today we're going to talk about all things skincare! Skincare is something I have been interested in since I was around 10 because it was then I started to get a problem skin (yes, I was that young...). I have never had acne, but very oily skin, blackheads and small bumps. When I was 10 I got blackheads, not that much but especially in my T-Zone. And when I was around 12 I got small bumps and more blackheads. And very oily skin. I would say that my skin was worst between 13-17.

I started to experiment with different skincare products at a quite early age. But when I was young I just had a cream at night and a cleanser. I didn't know so much about it back then. But when I got older, I learned more and more but it wasn't until I was 18, almost 19 I found products that really worked and made my skin so much better. I got introduced to Exuviance by my hairdresser (she is also a skin dermatologist. She is not my hairdresser anymore tho) and I bought the whole skincare range almost. It was very expensive and I did not have a job back then because I was still in school, so I left with a bad feeling in my stomach and I was wondering what I had just done. What if the products don't work?! But luckily they did. And you don't need much product so they last forever, so the price is so worth it!! Now I have been using these products as my skin care base for a little over two years and they are good, but lately, I have felt like my skin has changed. It's no longer that oily, could be because I'm older. It's more of a combination skin and I can get dry patches sometimes (If you told 13 years old me that I would never ever believed in it haha). And I feel like my skin is a bit "tight", don't really know how to describe it. But it is the opposite of smooth and bouncy. And I have fine lines which freak me out, I'm soon 21, come on!! So I have been thinking a lot recently I done a lot of research, and now I have decided to change my whole skin care routine and all my products (except this gel cleanser from Exuviance) and try something new. It's scary because I don't know how my skin will react to these new products and ingredients, you never know. But I will take it slowly and add in one new product at the time so my skin has a chance to get used to it and tell me if it likes it or not. 

Okay, so that was basically my skincare story. Let's move on to the new products I'm going to introduce to my skin.

These are all the new products I will start to use. Of course not all of them at the same time as I mentioned in the text above. Instead of focusing only on removing oil from my skin, I will now use products that exfoliate, renew, smooth and hydrate the skin. So pretty much the opposite from before. It doesn't matter what skin type you have, all skin types need hydration to look and feel healthy and I haven't given my skin hydration in a very long time. I have basically drawn out all my skin's natural oils and hydration and that is now causing a dry and textured surface. 

I will talk more deeply about the products and describe them now!

Pixi Retinol Tonic (use at night and morning) 

- Time release retinol reduces fine lines and smoothes the skin

- Peptides firm skin and boost collagen

- Jasmine flower heals and balances out the skin

Why This Product?

I have started to notice fine lines between my eyes and forehead and that freaks me out. Could also be because my skin is dry on the surface and probably deep down as well. Retinol helps the skin to build collagen that keeps the skin elastic and smooth. When you get older, your skin produces collagen slower and slower so this helps the skin renew faster and you will get a smooth face. It also contains jasmine flower which balances up the skin since retinol can be a bit drying. 

Pixi Collagen & Retinol Serum (use night time)

- Plumps and boosts elasticity

- Smoothes and refines

- Chamomille that calms and soothes the skin 

Why This Product? 

As the same reasons as above and to get that extra boost since a serum goes deeper down in the skin. 

IMPORTANT - Remember to use SPF when you use retinol (or any acids) products. They make the skin more sensitive to sun exposure so it's suuuuuper important!!! I will now have SPF in my day moisturizer and try to have it in my foundation as well. 

Pixi Vitamin - C Serum (use day time)

- Vitamin C for brightening

- Antioxidant protection

- Probiotics for strengthening and balance

Why This Product?

Vitamin C helps to improve the skin texture which is something I struggle with. It also reduces the effect of sun damage and help the skin to stand against sun damage more (but you still need SPF!!) 

Neutrogena Hydro Boost City Shield Hydration Lotion SPF 25 (use day time)

- Boosts hydration

- Protects against pollution and sun damage

Why This Product?

Well, first of all, it has SPF 25 which is amazing, and it's a lightweight, non-greasy formula. And you can wear it as a base under makeup. You don't find many moisturizers out there that has SPF 25 and that is non-greasy. It also has hyaluronic acid in it which is great for hydration. 

ACO Rebalancing Night Balm (use night time)

- Caring night cream for grown-up skin (yes, I consider myself as a grown up now)

- Fights impurities and fine lines

- Intense hydration up to 24 hours

- Gently exfoliate the skin

Why This Product?

Well, it seems like a dream cream to me! No JK, I understand that miracles don't happen overnight, but this is a night balm has good ingredients, the price is great and it seems to be a nice night cream. I don't want a night cream with too crazy or strong ingredients. It's good to let your skin rest too. I just want something calming and moisturizing that doesn't break you out and clog pores.  

The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil (use when needed)

(General things that rose hip seed oil does)

- Moisturizes the skin 

- Anti-aging benefits

- Can heal scars from acne for example 

- Antibacterial

- Help reduce skin pigmentation

- Help cell turnover and can fight acne and blackheads

Why This Product?

As you can see rose hip seed oil has a lot of benefits for the skin. I have done a lot of research and some say that oils are good for all skin types and some say it's a big NO NO for oily skin types. Since I now have a combination skin type, I feel like I want to give it a go and see what happens. I'm really excited to see if it can fight my blackheads or not since that is the things with my skin I struggle the most with I would say. I won't be using this daily, at least not in the beginning. I will start with one or twice a week to see how my skin reacts to it. 

The Body Shop Tea Tree Anti Imperfection Daily Solution Oil (use when needed)

- Purifying properties

- Soothing properties

- No pore clogging

Why This Product? 

When I heard about tea tree oil and its benefits and immediately got really interested in it and wanted to try it. It's an oil that makes the skin clearer overall which is what I need. So it's going to be fun to see how this one feels. I won't be using it every day in the beginning but I few times per week to start with or as a spot treatment. 

Omorovicza Refining Facial Polisher (use I few times per week)

- Contains Hungarian moor mud, rich in calcium and magnesium 

- Draws out impurities

- Refined skin texture

- Brightens up the complexion

Why This Product?

One of my health and wellness role models Annie Jaffrey loves this facial polisher and she has said so many good things about it so she definitely inspired me to purchase it. It's pretty expensive so I went for the small size (100 ml costs 800 SEK which is about 70-80 £/$!). Exfoliation is very important for making the skin smoother and for deep cleansing it.  

Garnier SkinActive Soothing Botanical Cleansing Milk (everyday makeup remover)

- Contains rose floral water

- 96 % natural ingredients

- Vegan (everyone can use it, YAY!)

Why This Product?

My current gel makeup remover has started to make my skin dry and it feels tight afterward, which is a sign that the remover is to harsh on your skin. I just want a makeup remover that leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth. I saw this one and thought I would give it a try and I like that it's vegan and the ingredients are 96% natural. 

Okay so hello if you made it to the end of this very long blog post! Skincare is something that is very close to my heart and if I had to choose between skincare and makeup I would choose skincare every time. Skincare is also something I put a lot more money too than makeup. I'm going to start with my new skincare routine today so I can't say anything about them yet, but I will in a few weeks. I hope this was interesting for you to read and that it might help others with similar skin types and problems to me, or just gave you some new inspiration to try new products. 

My favorite colors from Essie and my past as a nail art blogger...

^^ "Sand Tropez", here
Rings from Primark

Hi everyone! It's Friday woohoo! But I'm working this whole weekend... Next day I'm off is next Friday actually so 7 days in a row for me. But I was just off for two days and the day before that I was sick so I have been home for three days which has been so nice to be honest. I really needed that. So the first day I wasn't doing anything special since I had a horrible headache, but yesterday me and my friend had a little shopping day and it was so fun! Really a long time ago since we did something like that together and I have missed it so much.

And now on to today's blog post. Did you know that in the beginning, like many years ago, my blog was a nail blog? I was soooo into nail art and design by then. I was 14-15 and I was quite good actually. But then I stopped in lack of time I guess and it was a hobby and something I enjoyed doing for a while. My first collaboration was with an online nail art store also. But now I have grown up and so has my style, so I'm more into classic, sophisticated nudes now. Sometimes I do glitter as well which I really like. But I always try to keep it classic and simple. 

Mini Sephora Haul

Last week I went to Sephora and I found some goodies that I picked up. I have wanted to try something from Erborian for a while I now I finally did. I bought mini sizes for all the products because I just wanted to try them out and see if I like them or not. But I think I will have to buy the big size in some of them later... 

This is the CC Red Correct from Erborian, but it also has a soothing and even complexion effect. I have just a tiiiny slight red tone in my T-Zone and I didn't see a difference after using this actually. But I think it works better and that you will see a difference if your skin is more red and if you have acne for example. But I experienced a more smooth skin for sure! My face looked like a baby face haha! I'm not sure if I will buy the big size of this one, I think I will try their BB Cream instead next time. I couldn't find the CC Cream on ShopStyle so I will link it here instead. 

Then we have this little lip trio from Marc Jacobs and I LOVE IT!!! It's in the shade Cream And Sugar and it's literally the perfect nude color! I definitely have to buy a big size of the lipstick later! 

And last we have the Bad Gal mascara from Benefit. I watched some Youtube videos before and it seemed to be really good so I wanted to try it and it is really good! It glides on the lashes very easily and it's easy to remove as well. If you want to get the Bang effect out of it, you have to build it up so it takes some time, but it's worth it! 

Instagram Round-up

It's literally ages since I did an Instagram round-up haha! The last round-up I found was from 22 April 2016 (see it here)!! That's more than two years ago... So I thought that it was finally time to do a post now. I update a lot on my Instagram, more than I do here on the blog. I post about three times a day and it's mostly outfits and makeup. Here are some of my latest favorite posts. 

Get the look

My favorite lip color is nude ♡♡

All dresses under $50! 

Pastels for the win, always! I have mostly nude, baby pink or pastel pink on my nails. But sometimes I like to switch it up with some blue.

Have You Found Your Summer Perfume Yet?

We're almost halfway through May (!) so it's time to start looking for a summer perfume if you haven't already! I actually found my summer perfume months ago and it's Eau So Party from Victoria's Secret. It contains lime and I love it so much! It wasn't love at first sight tho. I discovered it when it was winter and I thought it was too fresh and fruity. I like more cozy, dark perfumes during winter. But then March and April came and I really started to like it and now I'm in love! My vanilla based winter perfumes now make me wanna throw up haha! Now I'm all about fresh, fruity and floral scents. 

Victoria's Secret also has a new perfume, just for the summer. It's called Bombshell Summer so it's a fruity and floral summer version of the legendary Bombshell perfume. Original Bombshell has passionfruit and Bombshell Summer has grapefruit. But the original Bombshell is really nice for the summer too, they are both fruity floral scents.

But just because the perfume is called "Summer xxx" doesn't mean that you're going to like it and considering it as a summer scent. The most important is to choose something you really like! ♡

My Top 3 Beauty Products Right Now

Hii lovelies, we made it to Friday!! Have you done something fun this week? 🎔 I started to do BBG for REAL this week and I can tell you that it has been a tough week haha. I have done BBG workouts before but I have mixed them up a bit with some of my own exercises and for legs, for example, I haven't done it fully because some of the exercises made my knee hurt a bit (I did a surgery 1 year ago and yes, sometimes I can still feel it and the doctor said that it will probably always be like that...) but this week, I started to do it for real and follow the workouts for 100%. I seriously thought I was going to throw up when I did the leg workout. It was horrible haha! And I realized how much cardio I have lost since I did my knee surgery and stopped doing gymnastics. Oh gosh... But it feels good to be on the go again. I think the hardest is the food. But if I stay away from cookies and cinnamon buns it should be fine. 

But let's move on to what this post was supposed to be about. I didn't plan to write about my BBG experience but I did ha. My plan was to talk to you about my current favorite beauty products!

Victoria's Secret Velvet Matte Lipstain (here)

I'm all about nude colors and pink but lately, I have been loving this more brown shade. What I also like about this is that it's matte, moisturizing and so long lasting! If you put this on your hand to see the color, your hand will be colored for two days (happens to the VS customers all the time, and if you don't know, I work there) if you don't scrub it off! And you can eat with it and it will look like nothing happened. It's so pigmented so it's exactly like a lipstick, but moisturizing too which is great because it's still winter here and my lips are so dry at the moment.  

Rituals The Ritual of Sakura Magic Touch Body Cream (here)

This body cream and smell makes me so happy, relaxed and calm. I love using it in the evening after I have showered and it's so creamy and perfect to use after you have shaved your legs too. This scent is just so lovely. I always put on a hand cream or lotion on my hand before I go to bed and this one is perfect. When I sleep, I don't want to feel a strong scent from my hands that gives me a headache. But this one is just so gentle. Love it!

Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer (here)

I bronzer is a must have in my makeup bag. I'm not so much into contouring, but I like bronzers! They are easier to use and you don't have to be so precise. I also have a very pale face so some bronzer is really necessary! The Hoola Bronzer from Benefit is a cult product but I hadn't tried it yet so I bought a set of Benefit travel size products and this one was included and I really like it! It's a pretty dark color so I have to be careful but it's beautiful! It's very small tho so my bronzer brush almost doesn't fit in it haha! But I will definitely go for a big size next time!

Testing a Straightener Brush // Testing Video!

Today you will find a new video on my Youtube channel and it's a video where I test a straightening brush! I have heard a little bit about these but wanted to try them for a while because I always make my hair straight and I use to blow dry it but it takes a while to do that... And a flat iron doesn't work with my hair, it gets curly again after a few hours or a day. So I was interested to see if a straightening brush would work or not. See if it did and what I thought about it in the video and please subscribe too 😘❤, it means a lot to me! 

Anyway, have you noticed any problems with Instagram hashtags lately? I have a problem with them. When I use hashtags, the photos don't show up when I search for the hashtag, only a few hashtags work. This is really annoying since I'm using hashtags to reach out to people and to get new followers. Have you experienced something like this? Please let me know if so! 

You can also watch the video here or on Youtube. 

The Moisturizer My Skin Is Loving This Winter

Say hi to my face's winter savior, the Daily Moisturizer for normal to oily skin from Cetaphil! I normally use a gel moisturizer because that works best for my skin but lately, my skin has gone over to be just oily to a combination skin. And I think it's the cold winter weather. I have got dry patches on my face and a gel moisturizer isn't enough for that. But what works is this one! It's a cream so it's thicker but it doesn't make my skin shinier or anything! It just makes my skin soft like a baby haha! And it sinks into the skin very well too and it's a good base for my makeup. 

I couldn't find the exact one online, I think it has a new bottle and it's for "All skin types" now instead. 

Maybe you have noticed that I have only posted beauty posts so far this week and it's because the weather is horrible. It's snowing almost every day so that makes it impossible to shoot bc 1. You won't see my outfit properly and 2. I don't want my camera to be wet. And when it's not snowing it's just dark and grey. So I don't feel so inspired for taking outfit photos right now because they don't look like I want them to look. I actually shot one outfit but I deleted all the photos later because they look so boring and I don't want to post them. But hopefully, spring will be here soon... So thank you for your patience and don't forget to check out my Instagram because I post a lot there too! 🎔

On My Beauty Wish List

Is it only me or is Fabruary going very, very fast? It's one week and one day left and then we're in March!! And when it's March you can say it's spring... Right?! 

It was a while ago since I did a beauty post here on the blog so I thought it would be a good opportunity today to share what's on my Beauty Wishlist right now. I have a list on my phone where I type everything that I want to buy and try out and I'm adding things on that list all the time.

I have two products from Benefit on my list right now and it's the Hoola Bronzer and The Porefessional primer. I haven't tried any products from Benefit but I really want to and those are like their most famous and popular ones. I also have some foundations on my list. I have heard that the Double Wear from Esteé Lauder is good but very thick and I want coverage but I don't want it to feel cakey or thick, so I want to try the light version of it. Then I want to try the Infallible Pro-Matte from Loreal which I think might be thick, but I have heard a lot of different opinions about this and I want to give it a try myself to see how it works with my skin. I have been searching for a foundation with higher spf than 15 and I think I have found it - Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint Spf 30. I have watched several videos on Youtube and it seems to be good. Medium coverage, light on the skin, not clogging the pores... I'm going on vacation this summer to a very hot and sunny country so I'm on the hunt for a foundation I can wear when we're in the city because I feel like I want makeup on when I'm shopping. On the beach I don't need anything but sun cream but I want to be more "dressed" up in the city but still be protected from the sun. That's why I also have the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream with Spf 30 on my list. I have a moisturizer now with Spf 15 but I don't think that will be enough. But of course I will have to try it out first to see if my skin likes it or not. And then the Last Paradise mascara that seems to be sooo good but I haven't tried it yet. I love mascaras from Loreal but I have had one from Lancome for a while now which I love but it's almost empty now so I think my next mascara will be the Last Paradise. I also have a lipstick on the list because I love lipsticks but I only own drugstore lipsticks and I would love to try something high end and luxurious!

Have you tried any of these? Did you like them or not? Would love to hear!❤

My Favorite Tools For Applying Foundation

Hi there and welcome to today's blog post! I'm doing my best to update my blog three times a week and so far it's going well! 

I'm a foundation lover and I don't know how many foundations I have... And I just keep buying more and more. I should probably do an "All My Foundations" kind of post sometime, but not today. Today it's about the thing you apply the foundation with.

Right now, I have four different brushes and tools I apply my foundation with and they all have their specific "area". I also want to say that I'm not a makeup expert so everything I write is based on my thoughts and how I like to use them.

Real Techniques Buffing Brush 

This brush is extremely good if you want an airbrushed finish to your foundation! I use this brush for medium coverage foundations that are easy to blend. And the brush is so soft!! 

The Oval Brush

This brush has been a favorite of mine since I bought it around a year ago. The brush is really compact and I find this one perfect for blending out high coverage, thick foundations that dry very fast (Rimmel Stay Matte Mousse for example). It's very easy to use and gives a smooth finish.

Real Techniques Expert Face Brush

This brush works well with every foundation. And you can blend in concealer with it too and apply powder! If I had to choose only one makeup brush, I would definitely pick this one! 

The Original Beauty Blender

I wasn't a big fan of this in the beginning but now I have started to like it! I find the beauty blender really good when you want a high coverage and build up your foundation. It doesn't leave your foundation cakey at all and your face will look really smooth and soft. 

The Perfect Nude

Victoria's Secret Velvet Matte in shade "Adored"

There is a perfect nude for everyone out there, but maybe you haven't found yours yet. I haven't, but I do have a lot of nudes at home that I love and this one above is one of them and the newest one too. And what I love so much about that particular one is that even though it's a matte lip stain, it's moisturizing and feels so nice on the lips! And it lasts almost the whole day, you can eat a meal and it will still be on your lips after you have finished.

I have listed some nudes here that I love and who knows, maybe your perfect nude is somewhere here...🎔

How I Take Care Of My Skin This Winter

Hi lovelies and welcome to a new week! This week it will be three blog posts up! One today and then on Wednesday and on Friday as my usual schedule. 

Today I wanted to talk to you about skin care and how to take care of your skin during the colder months (lucky you if you live in L.A or any other warm place...). During the summer I think it's easy to take care of my skin and I'm using body lotion etc two times a day. I think it's because you show your legs so much during the summer but you don't do that in the winter. I forget to use body lotion or just don't care bc I'm going to wear long pants anyway. But that's not good. My legs (and arms too) gets so dry!! 

But that has changed since I started working at VS. Before I worked there, I hadn't tried there body lotion but now I have and I'm obsessed! And so are our customers. One time I had a customer saying to me "These body lotions have saved my life". And they have pretty much saved my life too, or at least my body haha! 

So what I do is that I start in the shower and scrub my body and for that I'm using the 2 in 1 wash & scrub from Pink. Then when I go out of the shower, I use body lotion and my current favorite scent is Tempation lace (passionfruit and white amber, so lovely!). And after this routine my skin is so soft, smooth and moisturized. And then the last thing I do, after I have put clothes on, I spray a mist on top of it. ❤❤

Tiredness...

Is it just me or are you tired all the time too? I think it's the weather. Dark and cold. Ugh! But just because I feel tired doesn't mean I have to look tired. I just tried out this brightening gel cream from Victoria's Secret (unfortunately not available anymore) and I love it! It has shimmer in it so I was a bit skeptic to it in the beginning since I have oily skin but you know what, it works good on my skin and makes it so smooth!! 

I have also been eating a lot more sugar and unhealthy things the past month since it started to become really dark and cold. But it's true that you get depressed when the weather is like this and when you're feeling down you want sugar... So what I have to do it just to stop eating unhealthy and try to stay away from it! 

These will make you look awake...

Warm & Cozy

Hi and happy Friday everyone! I'm so glad it's weekend tomorrow because I feel like I need to sleep haha! I have been going up 2 in the night two days this week and I can totally feel that in both my body and in my mind. 

It has also started to become very cold and dark now. All I want to do is to stay inside, watch movies and just be cozy. But it doesn't work like that. You can't stay inside every day and do nothing... But I have found something that I can wear every day that makes me feel cozy, and it doesn't matter where I am. 

I recently discovered the Warm & Cozy body mist from Victoria's Secret and it has become a favorite of mine very quickly! It's roasted vanilla and peony in it which is a lovely combination! I'm not a fan of vanilla because I think it can be too sweet and you will smell like a bakery but if you mix it with florals or fruits, I think it's lovely! 

My Secret To Smooth Hair | My Hair Care Routine

Hi everyone! Today I wanted to write about something I don't do so often, my hair! So first a little information about my hair... 

I have really thick hair and my parents got that as well so I know where it comes from haha! And it's curly and big and fluffy. Yepp. And it's like the worst ever. When it's humid outside or raining, it gets SUPER big and fluffy and it's horrible and impossible to style. My mom has the same problem but she has even curlier hair than me. My hair is more wavy than curly. My hair also gets oily in the scalp which is not fun! So now you know a bit about my hair! And does it look big, fluffy and impossible to style in these photos? Nope, it's because I have learned how to style and take care of my hair. 

The first step is to find the right shampoo and conditioner. I went to a new hair dresser in April when I highlighted my hair (and that was the first time I did something color wise to my hair) and she recommended these products from Wella Professionals. These products are very moisturizing and make thick and unruly smooth. Exactly what I needed! And I have been loving these two so much. And one good thing is that you don't need so much product. 

I wash my hair two or three times a week (when I did gymnastics, three) but it depends a bit. I gently massage the shampoo into my hair and taking extra care to the scalp. Then I wash it off and apply conditioner to the ends and just dab a tiny, tiny amount of conditioner on the top of my scalp. By doing that, my scalp doesn't get oily so fast as usual. 

After I have washed my hair, I blow dry it with a big, round brush. This is how I get straight hair. I don't like using a flat iron because my hair is so thick so it takes forever and also it gets curly again after one day. So what I do is to blow dry it and then my hair keeps its straight form. 

Then we're at step two! Or maybe step two is blow drying... But anyway! After I have blow dried it, I apply hair oil or smoothing hair lotion to the ends. My hair becomes soo soft and smooth by doing that and it smells amazing too! The oil I'm currently using is from Proffs and the hair lotion from Schwarzkopf / got2b. 

So that is my current hair care routine I have had since April! I really need to go and highlight my hair again soon since it was a couple of months ago now... 😁❤
